Q: Photos won't sync to cloud anymore

Hello,

I had my 12,000 or so photos synced to my wife's iCloud ID.  Then i foolishly tried to move them to my own iCloud, by signing off hers and back into mine.

 

Big mistake.  Not only did it not sync, but now that i've log out and back into the wife's account, Photos won't sync at all.

 

It simply says "preparing 10,960 items", waits about 20 seconds, and then unticks the "sync to cloud" options and gives up.

 

Help!  is there a way to re-set and repair my photo library so it can sync once again?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
